Answer:

<em>The speed of the water bottle at impact with the street is 49 m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Free Fall Motion </u>

A free-falling object falls under the sole influence of gravity. Any object that is being acted upon only by the force of gravity is said to be in a state of free fall. Free-falling objects do not experience air resistance.

If an object is dropped from rest in a free-falling motion, it falls with a constant acceleration called the acceleration of gravity, which value is g = 9.8 m/s^2.

The final velocity of a free-falling object after a time t is given by:

vf=g.t

The water bottle dropped by Jamie takes t=5 seconds to impact the ground, thus its speed at that moment is:

vf= 9.8*5

vf =  49 m/s

The speed of the water bottle at impact with the street is 49 m/s

Displacement vectors of 4 km north, 2 km south, 5 km north, and 5 km south combine to a total displacement of
valentinak56 [21]

south = -(north)

Displacement = (4 km north) + (2 km south) + (5 km north) + (5 km south)

Displacement = (4 km north) - (2 km north) + (5 km north) - (5 km north)

Displacement = (4 - 2 + 5 - 5) km north

<u>Displacement = 2 km north </u>

2. Human Impact on the Environment
Kitty [74]
Burning fossil fuels emits a number of air pollutants that are harmful to both the environment and public health. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions, primarily the result of burning coal, contribute to acid rain and the formation of harmful particulate matter.

Why is it not suitable to determine the volume of an irregular charcoal using displacement method ​
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Displacement method of volume measurement is no suitable

Explanation:

Displacement method of volume measurement is no suitable for the objects that do not get immersed into the water completely because of the hindrance in accuracy of the measurement.

A sample of an ideal gas is in a tank of constant volume. The sample absorbs heat energy so that its temperature changes from 33
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}}=2.

Explanation:

The average kinetic energy per molecule of a ideal gas is given by:

\bar{K}=\frac{3k_{B}T}{2}

Now, we know that \bar{K} = (1/2)m\bar{v}^{2}

Before the absorption we have:

(1/2)m\bar{v_{1}}^{2}=\frac{3k_{B}T_{1}}{2} (1)

After the absorption,

(1/2)m\bar{v_{2}}^{2}=\frac{3k_{B}T_{2}}{2} (2)

If we want the ratio of v2/v1, let's divide the equation (2) by the equation (1)

\frac{v_{2}^{2}}{v_{1}^{2}}=\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}

\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}}=\sqrt{\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}}

\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}}=\sqrt{\frac{1340}{335}}

\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}}=\sqrt{4}

Therefore the ratio will be \frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}}=2

I hope it helps you!
